For a third round pick, cornerback Jourdan Lewis sure did come to Dallas with his fair share of hype. In fact, much of Cowboys Nation was more excited about Lewis joining the Cowboys than they were about either of the team’s first two selections in that same draft, Taco Charlton and Chidobe Awuzie. But while Awuzie …
It’s hard to imagine how a 37 year old tight end who was more recently in the broadcast booth than on the football field could possibly be “underrated,” but that’s what some NFL Execs seem to believe. Bleacher Report’s Mike Freeman conducted a survey of executives around the league, asking them who they believed the most …
Folks, it’s prediction time. NFL training camps are right around the corner, meaning that the actual kickoff of the 2019 season is creeping up fast. Which, of course, means that it’s time for everyone in the football world to make their 2019 season predictions. Bleacher Report trusted their predictions of each division champ to a panel of …
Coming off what was clearly the best season of his career thus far, Cowboys cornerback Byron Jones underwent surgery to hopefully fix a nagging hip injury. While he earned both his first All Pro and Pro Bowl honors in 2018, his first season as a full-time cornerback, Jones still has a lot to prove in the …
Counting the pockets of Cowboys star players has become a favorite activity of the national media this offseason, as everyone tries to figure out how Dallas will structure the deals for their young players over the course of the next year. While trying to figure out what the new deals will look like, it’s worth reflecting …
The Cowboys duo of young linebackers took the NFL by storm in 2018. Rookie Leighton Vander Esch and former second round pick Jaylon Smith played well above expectations, as for the first time in years Dallas did not face a significant drop off in defensive production when Sean Lee was out and injured. These young linebackers …
How good is La’el Collins? This is a question that Cowboys fans have disagreed on since his rookie season. Collins, who originally joined the team as their left guard replacing an injured Ronald Leary in 2015, moved out to right tackle in 2017, starting all 32 games there the last 2 seasons. Collins’ play has been …
Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli has earned the reputation for finding and developing lesser-known defensive linemen over the years, and turning them into productive players for his defense. It seems like every year the Cowboys have at least one defensive tackle who entered the season with no-to-limited hype, and finished it as a hard-nosed, productive …
The Ringer’s Robert Mays published a piece this week discussing the most realistic blockbuster type trades which could go down in the NFL this summer. And, as tends to be the case, there were Dallas Cowboys all over his list. Mays named both cornerback Byron Jones and right tackle La’el Collins as players which could potentially …
The Dallas Cowboys have a logjam of talent at wide receiver. While this sentence would’ve felt impossible just a year ago, it feels like a fact heading into training camp this season. Beginning with their selection of Michael Gallup in the 2018 NFL Draft, Dallas set out on a mission to re-tool their receiving corps. And, …
Last week, I published an article claiming that Dak Prescott was the most valuable player on the Dallas Cowboys’ offense. The premise was that quarterback is the most important position in football, and Prescott is a damn good one to have. The topic? Well, it was started because NFL.com named Ezekiel Elliott the third most important …
For a second round pick, Connor Williams joined the Cowboys with some serious expectations. In 2016 the Cowboys offensive line was unanimously named the best unit in all of football. Everyone feared them, respected them, and gave them the bulk of the credit for Dallas’ surprise 13-3 season. In 2017, however, when free agency hit them …
Every season we look for a player to step up and provide production for the Dallas Cowboys that they didn’t get a season ago. This year, fans have been hoping that offseason acquisitions like Randall Cobb can bring that extra offense, and a pass rusher like Robert Quinn can aid the defense in new ways. But …
Before the AAF folded for good just weeks into its inaugural season, players across the professional football league made names for themselves on the national stage. Many of these players have been invited to NFL training camps this Summer, looking to earn roster spots in the big leagues. Shakir Soto is one of those players. The …
Expectations around the 2019 Dallas Cowboys are as high as they’ve been in quite some time. Fans are hoping the team can carry the momentum from their late season run in 2018 into this upcoming season, and repeat as NFC East champions for the first time in well over a decade. Expectations around individual players on the …
Hello, angry mob. Welcome. No, by the way, the headline is not clickbait. NFL.com named the most indispensable offensive players in the league, placing Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott third on that list. High praise for a running back who has led the league in rushing two of this first three seasons, and is regarded …
The NFC has not had a repeat champion since Andy Reid and Donovan McNabb were losing in NFC championship games in the early 2000’s. Even when seemingly new powerhouses emerge, like the 2014 Cowboys or 2017 Eagles, these teams are unable to sustain that level of success for a second consecutive season. Whether due to injury, …
Five time Pro Bowler. Three time first team All Pro. And, still a free agent as of July 4th, 2019. This describes safety Eric Berry, who despite meeting with multiple teams during the opening of free agency, is still without a team for the 2019 season. Berry’s resume is certainly an impressive one, but there’s good …
The Cowboys went into the 2019 NFL Draft without a first round pick, but they certainly made the most of the selections they did have. With their first pick in the second round, they added UCF defensive tackle Trysten Hill, hoping to give a much needed boost to their depth on the interior. In the third …
“There’s no ceiling on this team.” Cowboys starting quarterback Dak Prescott did not mince words when speaking with the media this week about what his expectations are for the upcoming 2019 season. Rather than giving the standard, “we’ll see what happens” type of answer, Prescott answered honestly. And, likely, answered correctly. The 2018 season was a …
It’s been a few years since things around the Dallas Cowboys felt this good prior to a season. Coming off a 10-6 year in which Dallas won both the NFC East and a home playoff game before losing a one possession road game to the future NFC champions, Cowboys Nation is expecting some big things in 2019. …
